Cost of Braces

What is the cost of Braces?

The main concern for any medical issue is the cost price you will have to pay in order to cure, fix, restore or rectify the medical or dental issue. This is especially true when you have many different treatment plans to choose from. When a person has misaligned teeth, they will undoubtedly need either orthodontic treatment or reconstructive treatment with porcelain veneers.

So what is the cost of braces really? In general the cost price of orthodontic braces treatment starts from $2,500.00 and can go up to $8,500.00 depending on the factors below.

This will include

1. Record taking for the diagnosis and planning of the treatment
2. The orthodontic treatment itself
3. Retainers at the end of treatment.

In regards to orthodontics in our practice in Sydney City CBD, two questions will usually come to mind; what different types of orthodontic braces treatments are available and how much do each of these orthodontic braces treatment cost? The cost price of braces in Sydney depends on several factors, which you can find out more about below.

1. The time it takes to do treatment. These fees are determined case-by-case. They vary greatly because of the many issues that may arise during the procedure. Some oral conditions may require more time from an orthodontist, which of course will cost a bit more. This factor can only be estimated. Generally when we quote a fee it will not change unless other dental conditions not related to orthodontic treatment arise
2. Appearance of the Treatment and Location: 
This factor is huge when it comes to determining the cost of your braces. Traditional metal braces are the cheapest, but most people pass on this option due to how uncomfortable and visually unappealing they are. If you go with clear invisible ceramic braces such as Invisalign or Damon, then the cost of braces will increase. This is due to the fact that the material used to make these braces invisible costs more to manufacture than metal. The location also matters. For lingual braces, which are similar to traditional ones except they are installed on the back of the teeth tend to take a longer time to work and cost more to do.
